FORMULA

S_r(n+1, k)=k S_r(n, k)+binomial(n, r-1)S_r(n-r+1, k-1) for this sequence, r=2 G.f.: sum(S_r(n, k)u^k ((t^n)/(n!)), n=0..infty, k=0..infty)=exp(u(e^t-sum(t^i/i!, i=0..r-1)))

a(n, k) = sum_{i=0..k} (-1)^i*binomial(n, i)*[sum_{j=0..k-i} (-1)^j*(k -i -j)^(n-i)/(j!*(k-i-j)!)] - David Wasserman (dwasserm(AT)earthlink.net), Jun 13 2007

EXAMPLE

There are 3 ways of partitioning a set N of cardinality 4 into 2 blocks each of cardinality at least 2, so S_2(4,2)=3.
